De Wolf en de Zeven Geitjes

De Wolf en de Zeven Geitjes is a story-based amusement ride in Efteling that shows scenes unfold as visitors move through the experience. The ride uses moving figures, sounds, and lights to bring each part of the tale to life in front of the audience.

The ride came into being as part of the Fairy Tale Forest, an early section of Efteling that has drawn visitors since the park's founding in the mid-20th century. It represents classic European stories that have entertained families for generations.

The attraction tells a story about danger and outwitting an enemy through scenes that visitors watch unfold before them. The mechanical characters bring the narrative to life in a way that speaks directly to both children and adults without needing words.

The ride sits in the Fairy Tale Forest area and is easy to find by following the marked paths through the park. Expect the area to get crowded and form lines during busy seasons, particularly on summer weekends and school holidays.

The figures were hand-painted and the details show real craftsmanship from an earlier era of theme park design. Many visitors miss seeing how the older-style animations actually work because they stay focused on the story unfolding.
